I meant, just copy the file, without installing from PPA. Anyway, the
number of fp pipes is now 1 which should be "safe" for these cards. If
you still have corruption, there must be another reason for it.

Some of these cards have only one functional pipe, or one that passed
the tests at the fab, so they disabled the second in the window driver
and spec'ed with 1 and called it "SE". Then this series got so popular
that they continued shipping it like that even if the cards actually had
two perfect pipes. The linux drivers run all cards with 2 pipes, so I
thought that was the problem. But you are maybe one of the lucky ones
with two working pipes. And the corruption is due to something else.
